N501KT

The airframe bearing tail number N501KT is a 2012-built Learjet 45XR, serial number 45-435, manufactured by Learjet (Bombardier Aerospace). The aircraft is registered in the US and is registered to the corporation Bravo 997 LLC, based in Grand Rapids, MI, US. Its operator/home base is associated with the listed owner in Grand Rapids. Notable registry information includes its US registration and corporate ownership; the airframe is valued at $4,500,000, reflecting market condition and configuration for the type.

This specific Learjet 45XR is outfitted in a typical executive cabin featuring an 8‑place double‑club layout with an enclosed aft lavatory and internal/external baggage capacity (approximately 50–66 cu ft depending on fit). The installed avionics reflect the common fit for the model family, a Honeywell Primus suite with typical Primus/UNS-1C FMS capability on 45/45XR variants, supporting modern navigation and flight management requirements. Typical missions for this airframe would include short- to mid-range executive transport and on-demand charter operations within the aircraft’s 1,840 nm range and high-speed cruise capability; maintenance considerations mirror the model’s twin Honeywell TFE731 engine program and the cabin configuration’s variable baggage volume.

The Learjet 45XR occupies a performance niche as a light to midsize business jet with high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling, competing with contemporaries in the light midsize category. Demand among owner-operators and charter companies has historically targeted the 45/45XR for its speed, runway performance, and cabin flexibility. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe specifically hinge on its 2012 build year, serial 45-435, corporate ownership structure under Bravo 997 LLC, and the ongoing supportability of the Honeywell Primus avionics and TFE731-20BR engines.
